章 278: We have time

Earlier that same day, inside Yong Liwei's penthouse.

After dressing up Little Peanut into an adorable baby-sized dark blue tuxedo that matched perfectly with his father's navy blue retro suit, Lu Mengjie began dressing up. 

She applied a minimal layer of cosmetics to her face, just enough to enhance her natural beauty. After applying pink lipstick, she donned a slender A-line knee-length dress with a blue flare flower printed design. With some difficulty, she was only able to pull the zipper halfway.

Lu Mengjie let out a grunt in frustration. She walked out of the bed and headed straight to her husband's home office to ask for help.

Upon entering, she saw him standing by the window, his back facing her. He had an airpod in his ear, he was talking with someone. He was giving the appearance of a very isolated individual, someone who was cut off from the rest of the world but fully capable of controlling it.
